The old peter just looked slightly off cause he looked like he had had a nose job. Don’t care either way about the new one but that’s what the old render screamed to me.

I'm guessing there will be vented top covers so it cools better when lying down. It pretty clearly is meant to stand up, which sucks for nearly everyone with a sane entertainment system.

I know they didn't list themselves as having it but PS5 better have hbomax at launch. I'm so pissed it isn't in my LG television. And watching through my subscription on other apps locks out over half the content. Because apparently they signed some exclusivity deal with Samsung for smart tvs. So if you don't have a Samsung you gotta buy some other device.

PS4 does I'd assume PS5 does as well.

I think that picture Wario tweeted was indeed old - I've been refreshing constantly since 5:55 or so in the mobile app which has always let me into the product page and I've never seen anything other than Coming Soon. Unless the button changed to In Stock for like one second, I don't think they actually dropped yet.

Thats what I've been doing too, feeling like a dildo sitting here refreshing over and over lol

Big Beef City posted:

So is it considered a failure on Sony's part regarding this launch? Or was this part of their 'plan' to drive demand/a normal launch cycle?
Now that I'm actually looking to pick one up and reading about the scarcity and how people have been waiting on orders since mid December, and how there's no stock anywhere basically around the world, was there some kind of production foul up? Is Sony intentionally doing limited releases? Do any early release or what?

I'm sorry to just barge in here and ask poo poo questions I know how annoying that is. I'll try and not stupid it up too badly.

There was a global pandemic that shut down production of units for some time yes.

But every console release has a few months of scarcity because demand is so huge.

So where should I look for a PS5 at this time?

amazon had two massive drops over the past week. I got mine on the 29th as part of a 12k unit drop (could check out for about 10-12 minutes after the drop instead of the usual 10 seconds.

I mean you can buy a 6TB platter and it will work fine with more storage space, but the load times will be the same or worse than on a PS4 depending on which one you get.

An SSD rated at 1050 is going to be crazy fast, though.

Like a decent benchmark is the Metro games that had such ridiculously long load times they put maps and voiceover narration in the loading screen because they were obscenely long.

On a PS4 you're looking at ~25 seconds. On the PS5 internal it was 3 seconds and on the 1050 external it was 4 seconds.

So you need to get a really beefy HDD for big storage and kinda fast loading times, or a 1050 SSD for less storage but insanely fast loading times.

So it looks like a Samsung T5 2TB would be good for the Ps5?

Are these PS5 patches incorporating stuff like the haptic triggers and vibrations in the controllers? Or do the games just look and run better?

Yeah I just want to make sure the free upgrade is the same as buying the ps5 version. I get my ps5 tomorrow and will play CP77 now and and then again when its upgraded, but not now if its technically going to be missing stuff.

History Comes Inside! posted:

Does it have “weapons and ammo are super scarce so you need to be sneaky all the time and be careful not to leave yourself exposed!” gameplay or can I just go around killing everything in sight if I want?

Not in an “I love killing everything” way but in an “I can’t be bothered to deal with the artificial stress induced by games like that right now on top of real life” kind of way.

It starts out more stealthy and limited but after a couple hours you'll be a killing machine (and have many many many hours left if you choose to do all the content)

taking a break before my next Demons Souls run and playing Astro's Playroom. Its cute and fun and easy, but really does let the controller shine, this thing has some juice. I can't wait for the first exclusive to really take advantage of it. DeS has a ton but nothing like Astro's.
